My guest this episode is Dara Hoffman-Fox, a queer-identified gender therapist, writer, educator, and transgender rights advocate. Frequently serving as a subject-matter expert on transgender and non-binary issues for the media, Dara is a prolific thought leader on the topic of gender identity whose articles and videos have empowered thousands worldwide. Dara provides educational resources through a blog, YouTube channel, social media networks, trainings and presentations.

This episode runs long, because the conversation that Dara and I were having was so great, that neither one of us were in a hurry to end it. Dara is an amazing person, and I’m extremely happy to finally make this show happen, and that the conversation went so well.

To close this episode out I asked FLOWTUS if I could play one of the tracks they recorded outside of the studio. As I’m typing this I had just heard them last night, they were amazing, and I didn’t want to wait for them to hit the studio before I shared their music. Give it a listen, imagine you’re sitting 6 feet from the band with a gorgeous fire burning behind you, surrounded by friends. FLOWTUS will forever have a special place in my heart for being a great soundtrack on such an amazing night.
